Hello, I live in London and have just joined the forum today.
I am really interested to talk to anyone who has had a triple ankle fusion as I have just had one 7 weeks ago (due to adult flat foot and rheumatoid arthritis). I dont know how these forums actually work, but I hope someone will reply!!!

    Hi Caychi

    these forums are great for meeting other folks with similar issues to yourself. Just stick a message on and come back later - someone will usually have responded :smile:

    I myself have not had that surgery, but others have had their ankles 'done' for definite.

    Must get on now have loads to do today, but welcome to the forums from me :grin:

    Love

    Toni xx

    Hi there, I only joined today and can't believe it, I had that very same operation 7 weeks ago. Would love to hear how you're getting on. I'm still not able to weight-bear & can't use my crutches due to a bad flare up, I also have rheumatoid arthritis.
    Would really love to hear from you.

    Hi lupin 25

    Only just saw your new reply to my post. I am going for my 12 week check tomorrow. I was in a cast for 9 weeks and have been in an airboot non-weight bearing but touch-through walking for the last 3 weeks. If there is any thing specific you would like to talk about,please free to send a personal message any time.
